Wet PS3 Exclusivity Denied

There have been rumors on the web that a UK game retailer is only showing PS3 cover art for Sierra's hotly anticipated title Wet and therefore it will no longer be available for the Xbox 360. Today, the Bitbag received an e-mail confirmation from Sierra/Vivendi that Wet will not be a PS3 exclusive title. We put a little more confidence in this response than prior "we can neither confirm or deny" statements we have heard from other publishers in the past.

"Hotly anticipated?" I haven't even heard of the game until now.

[Cartesian3D]

me too .. Iv been on N4G for about 1 and half year , and I dont remember anythin about this game..

[BulletToothtony]

Sony's claim that Gears of War2 coming to the ps3 is false..

and btw what's "Wet" again never heard of it

[Sangria]

This is how to fail a hype attempt: talking about rumors that never existed on a game that nobody knows.

[juuken]

I never heard of it either...o_O

[qface64]

so im not the only one that hasn't really heard of it i was like hotly anticipated? O_o

[Zeal0t]

you're not :) But anyhow the title has sparked my interest a bit ^^

[butterfinger]

yesterday's article claiming that we had such high expectations for Midway and Vin Diesel's Wheelman? I think companies are using a strategy of putting out fake rumors or debunking non-existent rumors just to get us to bite on their obscure titles. This is stupid.

[TruthBTold]

pheww...Im glad Im not the only one that hasnt heard about this "hotly anticipated game" knowone seems to know anything about. Talk about hyping a game. What is it though, sounds more like porn LOL.

[themyk]

i've heard of it a few times. it's all about this hottie that can run and flip around like a crazy person and shoot at the same time.

what ever.

[PopEmUp]

late last year, but not sure which platform it was on. the game was show on ign, and you know there even a wallpaper of it

[Doppy]

All I know is that it's an action game about a girl with a sword and a gun.

[ShAkKa]

i came to hear about this games just a few days back when psu.com put it on their list of "forgotten ps3 games" and i don`t think this is hotly anticipated at all.

[xfrgtr]

thebitbag.com is the worst source of info,you remember the Bioshock fiasco?
There wasn't even a rumour to begin with.The title is misleading,how an exclusivity deal is denied while Sony never ask for it?lol.It shows how anti-sony the bitbag is.

[Mr_Bun]

why does bitbag hate sony? I know why kotaku.com does, but did bitbag and Sony have a falling out?

[Mr_Bun]

I love it when people disagree with a question...then to top it off, don't have the balls to comment as to why they disagree

[Mc Fadge]

Does Kotaku hate Sony?

[Mr_Bun]

Kotaku.com hates Sony 'cause they were asked by Sony not to publish a rumor about Home and Kotaku published it anyways, so Sony has blackballed them and Kotaku is still bitter.

[MK_Red]

WTF? There was never such a rumor. The game was announced for both PS3 and 360 long ago and the first shown footage was from the 360 version.

[Zeal0t]

What type of game is it? Genre?

[MK_Red]

Action adventure with a hot gal killing people Kill Bill style:

WET is an upcoming video game, developed by A2M and published by Sierra Entertainment for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The game is an action game starring a female heroine named Rubi. Although recently announced the game has already been compared to the Tomb Raider series, due in part to Rubi's similarities to Lara Croft as well as the vampire Rayne from BloodRayne.

Apparently I can't comment in the GZ... cute

[ShAkKa]

maybe is because your name lol!

[name]

Everything becomes a hotly anticipated title if exclusivity is in question.

[rushbd]

no one cares...

[Excalibur]

So Neo is a chick now?

[grover18]

Heheh

[jedicurt]

o... okay... had to make a quick trip over to gametrailers to watch a video of it... now i remember this game... just forgot what it was called... guess i'm not the target market, since i wasn't hotly anticipating this game

[Spike47]

I have heard about this "Wet".

[nice_cuppa]

with the last few weeks game news i would expect the oposite !
either 360 exclusive or timed !
or a delay to ps3 version !

glad to see we all get to play !
now it just needs to be good !

I mean after the amount of money/delays there has been dished out for the 1st party offerings not to mention the cancelations of the get away/8 days and rumoured HS2. It looks like the console war/Br drive has taken its toll on Sony and they dont have much money to play around with at the mo.

Not to mention dev are wary of going PS3 exc due to the problems/money involved when it comes to dev for the ps3. After the spectacular failing of FR(a respected and talented team.) with Haze i wonder how many others will want to take the risk especially if Sony aint handing out cash as an incentive.

Im just wondering how many more Star ocean 4's were gonna see at this moment in time.

Sorry for sounding pessamisitc but im just being a realist and this is how i see it at this moment in time. Apart from MGS 4 it has been bad news for most of the year with Gt5p being a big dissapointment for me due to the lack of progression in everything except car models. How many more MGS type exc are we gonna beable to play as Ps3 owners?

I suppose it depends on how bad you want to play ff13/lbp/R2 and killzone 2. At the moment for me there is only one must play out of those games(Ff 13) as shooters are 2 a penny and there are better franchises already out then the 2 mentioned and lbp looks very interesting but i don't think ill have the time or the patience to get the most out of it.

The Bitbag does not hate Sony. If you listen to the HipHopGamer show or WarZone podcast, Sony gets much love.

The Bitbag does not have a problem with Sony getting exclusives, just wanted to quell any rumor by Sony fans that the PS3 might get this game as an exclusive.

For those that have never heard of the game or have forgotten, it made huge news during the Sierra Gamer's Week back in August and has seen over a quarter of a million downloads at GameTrailers. I personally am looking forward to this game as it looks amazing.
